My Windows 8 laptop recognizes this card reader immediately...but when I insert a micro-SD card, the card is not recognized. Maybe I have a bad card?

G. Powers,That is possible. Have you tried any other cards? I have not had any issues at all with this reader. If not try connecting the device directly to the computer, good luck my friend.

Sometimes sd cards need to be formatted. If this is not the case in your situation, then look up trouble shooting for the card reader. All else fails you can obviously try another card or contact customer service for the manufacturer, they should be able to walk you through trouble shooting and correcting the problem.

IF you wish to see if your card is defective, try going to a store such as target and inserting it in to one of their photo machines. If the card is all right, the card will be recognised,

In my system with windows 8.1 I found that yes it was recognized sometimes, most not until I installed the drivers; then the usb 3 came alive. if you have not found the right ones email me through my seller account here.

Make sure that the card is formatted correctly. Depending on the operating system of your computer you can insert the card into your computer and either erase all of the files or reformat the card. I bought the same card and did not have that problem. Let me know if you need further help.

I used it on my Windows 7 slate before upgrading to Windows 8 and then 8.1. Both the CAC and flash memory readers worked fine under all three operating systems. Like Windows 7, you shouldn't need Active Client software to use the smart card (CAC) reader with Windows 8.

When I plugged it into my laptop with Windows 7, it recognized it. I put a blank CD in the drive and I was then able to use it.

Get another one . but before you use a small card assuming a mini micro sd card. get and adapter for the micro sd and put it in the adapter, and than you put the adapter in the sdhc reader. and there you go.

SD Card reader? Mine did not. But you have to check the specs closely. I ordered mine from Dell direct.They're built slightly differently depending on vendor, stock, etc. Try Dell direct for comparison. Maybe you can have 1 built to spec and get as good or better deal

J.E., I have used this card reader with Windows 7 and, up to now, have not experienced any issues. I hope this helps.

I experienced the same problem. It's not software problem. Most likely it's from poor contact between SD card and device. After inserting SD card, push or wiggle gently the USB port side tip of SD card until the second light (blue) from right comes on. Then the device will start reading the SD card.

Get yourself an sd/mmc card reader. Remove the card from your MiCorder, place it into the reader and place the reader into the usb port. Also, with the cord that came with the MiCorder, plug that into the MiCorder and the other into the computer's usb port. Both options worked fine for me. Good Luck!

First you have to have a SD Card reader or some other kind of multi reader. Then you put the micro sd card into the adapter and insert into the reader then go to MY COMPUTER (in windows) and right click on the card when computer recognizes it and choose format from the drop down window. Choose the format type that you want and execute

The card reader has to be physically plugged in and turned on before you start the software. Assuming that you have it installed correctly.

I recently bought the kingston 1 gb microSD for my vx8300. The phone recognized the card and shows the full 1 gb, but when u put music in the my music folder, nothing shows up for me. The only way i could get music onto it was by putting it in the my mp3 folder. Under my mp3s, the songs are organized by file name so there is no real organization. Other users say that the card works with the 8300, but my experience tells otherwise.

Mine came with a USB card reader adapter. It's very nice, but any SD card adapter should work.

It would appear that the adapter is faulty. To the upper-middle left side is a slide switch that locks the read/write capability on the card. If that doesn't fix the problem, then a replacement adapter would need to be purchased. For $1.25, an empty SanDisk adapter can be purchased here: http://www.oempcworld.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=Adapter-micro-SD-Sandisk

Well, I just tried a micro SD in mine, and it worked. I'm running Windows 8.1. USB 3.0 also works. That's about all I use, but they seem to work.
